A MYSTERY vehicle has slowly been acquiring parking tickets while it sits idle in a parking bay off Union Row.
The grey Seat appears to have been abandoned as it has not budged from its Old Town spot opposite BBC Wiltshire in weeks.
But that hasn’t stopped traffic wardens slapping ticket after ticket on the windscreen.
It was spotted by a bemused commuter who, while on their way to work yesterday morning, wondered what on earth the council were doing about it.
Luckily for people who live in the area, Swindon Borough Council confirmed that the car has been issued with a removal notice and is likely to be moved in the next day or so.
Residents are urged to contact the council if they suspect a vehicle has been abandoned.
The authority aims to inspect and commence an investigation of an abandoned cars within one working day.
